attashe74 [19]

Based on the text, it can be inferred the wealthy residents of East Egg tend to hide their unattractive qualities (option A).

<h3>What is an inference?</h3>

An inference is an educated conclusion or idea based on a text. Inferences imply analyzing the explicit information and drawing conclusions that are not explicitly given.

<h3>What can be inferred from the text?</h3>

Different ideas can be inferred from the text:

  1. The East egg belongs to wealthy people: This idea can be inferred based on the detail "West Egg, the—well, the less fashionable", which shows the east egg was related to luxury and wealth.
  2. In the East egg appearance is very important: This idea can be inferred based on "Across the courtesy bay the white palaces of fashionable East Egg glittered along the water" which shows appearance is highly valued in this egg, and it is likely residents try to hide unpleasant aspects due to this,

Note: This question is incomplete because the text is missing; here is the missing section:
